  • The House System is one of the features of a school community. In Pride ISM Primary School, the students and teachers across Year 3 to Year 6 are integrated into four Houses namely, GRIFFIN, PEGASUS, ANZU and PHOENIX.

  • With only one House System, which is the same as Secondary School, students of Primary continue to be in the same House Group when they reach Secondary. Students are able to support each other as they move through key stages.
  • Our Houses names are chosen by the students, who vote for them. They are named after four mythical birds. The following are the House logos designed by our students.
